From the New Testament:Little children, keep yourselves from idols. [1 John 5:21]

Can you count to 3?

An evil and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given to it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas:For as Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale’s belly; so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.The men of Nineveh shall rise in judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it: because they repented at the preaching of Jonas; and, behold, a greater than Jonas is here. Matthew 12:38-41

Yeshua (Jesus) told us clearly here that the sign ofhis authenticity will be the sign of the prophet Jonah. Also read Matthew 16 and Luke 11.

Matthew 12:40 clearly tells us that Yeshua would be in the grave THREE DAYS and THREENIGHTS (72 HOURS).

Jesus was not crucified on 3pm “Good” Friday and then resurrected Sunday morning.

Mathematics clearly proves this… How does 3 days and 3 nights fit in to a 2 nights and one day time period?

IT DOESN’T!

The Gospel account tells of how the Feast of Passover was a rehearsal for when our Messiah would be offered for the sins of the world. Everything that was done for a thousand years by the Israelites to the Passover Lamb was fulfilled by Yeshua (Jesus) to the minutest detail.

Your glorying is not good. Know ye not that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump?
Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us: Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness; but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth. 1 Corinthians 5:6-8

Behold the LambofGod, which taketh away the sin of the world. John 1:29

And Abraham said, My son, Godwillprovidehimself a lamb for a burnt offering: so they went both of them together. Genesis 22:8

In the year our Lord was crucified, the High Sabbath Passover was on a Wednesday evening. The crucifixion happened around 3pm Wednesday.

The Jews therefore, because it was the preparation, that the bodies should not remain upon the cross on the sabbath day, (for that sabbath day was an high day,) besought Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away. John 19:31

It is important to know that God’s calender begins the day starting at Evening (sunset). Genesis 1:2-5.

Just before sunset on Wednesday our Lord Yeshua was put in the tomb.

In the end of the sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre.And, behold, there was a great earthquake: for the angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door, and sat upon it. His countenance was like lightning, and his raiment white as snow: And for fear of him the keepers did shake, and became as dead men. And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye: for I know that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified. He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay. Matthew 28:1-6

3 days and 3 nights later women come to Yeshua’s tomb in the early hours of the first day while it is dark. According to God’s reckoning of time the early hours of the first day is Saturday night and not Sunday morning.

Jesus was crucified and then put in the tomb on the High Sabbath and then resurrected on the weekly Sabbath. There goes the last legs of Sunday church theology.

Jesus taught us during his ministry to keep passover and do it in remembrance of him.

And he took bread, and gave thanks, and brake it, and gave unto them, saying, This is my body which is given for you: this do in remembrance of me. Likewise also the cup after supper, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood, which is shed for you. Luke 22: 19-20

The Sunday festival is pagan wickedness and presents a false gospel. Do not be deceived.

If you’ve ever wanted to go behind the scenes, to dive into the solutions to the mysteries of the Bible, Michael Rood can take you there!

With a teaching style that is emphatic and hard to ignore, Michael Rood reveals behind-the-scenes cultural context to help you demystify the secrets of the Bible, from the Feasts of the LORD, to the Ark of the Covenant, to biblical truths hidden for centuries, or even a day-by-day playbook of the Messiah’s ministry.

Your faith will be renewed and recharged as Michael deciphers Scriptures that have been clouded by misinterpretation for centuries — no one can deliver the story behind the story like Michael Rood, the “biblical archaeologist”.

PASSOVER

Sundown tonight on the 14th of the month of the Aviv (April 14 on the pagan calender) is the celebration of the Passover (Pesach), a holy convocation [Leviticus 23].

This day is important to God’s people for two reasons:

Today is the celebration of when God delivered the Israelites out of Egypt. The people rejoiced and sung “Thy right hand, O YeHoVaH, is become glorious in power: thy right hand, O YeHoVaH, hath dashed in pieces the enemy.” [Exodus 15]

For believers of the Messiah Yeshua (Jesus) this prophetic shadow picture is fulfilled in every detail to the precise moment.

Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us:

Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness; but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth. [1 Corinthians 5:7-8]

By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all. And every priest standeth daily ministering and offering oftentimes the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins: But this man, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever, sat down on the right hand of God. [Hebrews 10:10-12]

Every year in Jerusalem (prior to the destruction of the temple) everyone came up for the feast. The high priest would then go to the sheep folds of Bethlehem and select the perfect Passover Lamb to sacrifice. The priests would stand in the gate making a path and would cry out “Hosanna to the son of David: Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord; Hosanna in the highest” to the high priest walking the lamb up to the temple. The sound of every one crying out was awesome.

The year of Yeshua’s sacrifice, Yeshua had his disciples stand at the gate as he rode in on a colt. The disciples started to cry out “Hosanna to the son of David: Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord; Hosanna in the highest“. The priests start copying the disciples not realizing their high priest is still out side of the city. Everyone races out of their houses and starts to cry out. Then the priests realize its Jesus. It’s Jesus on a donkey!!! they yelled, and ordered Yeshua to shut his disciples up but he refused.

For four days the Passover lamb is inspected. For four days Yeshua was inquired of by the Pharisees and Sadducees and then Pilate prophetically declares the same words spoken by the high priest after the Passover lamb has been inspected… “I FIND NO FAULT IN HIM”.

Yeshua was then taken out to be crucified that day Wednesday before the Passover Wednesday night. Yeshua then spoke the exact words spoken by the high priest after the final Passover sacrifice is made…”I thirst” and someone gave Yeshua a sponge with vinegar.

Yeshua then lifted up his body with one last breath and cried out the same last words spoken by the high priest after the Passover lamb has been sacrificed… “IT IS FINISHED!”

The Israelites did not want any bodies up on crosses during the High Sabbath so a Roman soldier took a club and broke the crucified men’s legs, but when he got to Yeshua he saw that he was already dead. Yeshua’s legs had not been broken, fulfilling the prophetic shadow picture that not a single bone of the Passover lamb is to be broken. He took a spear and pierced Yeshua’s side and out poured blood and water. The ground had been torn underneath and his blood ran down the crack into the place Jeremiah hid the Ark of the Covenant, anointing the most holy.

Celebrating Purim on March 16th this year?

Purim is a festival that reminds us of the hand of Adonai YHVH and how he saved his people from complete annihilation.

On Purim we read the scroll or book of Esther that contains the account of what transpired.

Purim is for all of God’s people. Not just for the house of Judah (Jews), but the whole house of Israel.

The Bad News is you have already missed Purim.

Purim was last month. The book of Esther clearly tells us that this festival is to be celebrated in the 12th monthAdar. [Esther 9:21]

Before the dispersion, as the last act of the Sanhedrin, a calculated calender was instituted requiring Adar Bet‘s to be estimated.

A Jewish tradition was instituted where in the event of an Adar Bet, Purim will be celebrated on the Adar Bet instead.

However we are back in the Promised Land.

We can check to see the barley is Aviv to determine whether an Adar Bet is Necessary.

There is NO EXCUSE to continue ignoring YHVH‘s calender.

If you continue to trust in Man’s calender over YHVH‘s calender, good luck with heeding and interpreting prophecy. A veil of blindness will be over you.

You do know YHVH runs this universe according to His clock and not any man made or pagan calender?

If you are wise and choose to return to YHVH‘s calender, you will realize that we do not even find out that there is an ADAR BET until the day we would have celebrated Purim on the 12th monthhas passed!!!

Therefore Celebrating Purim on the 13th month is faulty logic and obeying the Rabbis instead of YHVH is rebellion against THE MOST HIGH.

Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah and Zeboiim (plural); the five cities of the plain have been discovered!

They are covered in ash and Brimstone!

The Bible records…

The book of Genesis records God telling Abraham that he will judge the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah because the cry of Sodom and Gomorrah is great, and because their sin is very grievous [Genesis 18:20]. I will go down now, and see whether they have done altogether according to the cry of it, which is come unto me; and if not, I will know [Genesis 18:21]. Two Angels who have the appearance of men, are sent by God and they enter the city of Sodom at night. Lot who is Abraham’s nephew insists the Angels get off the street and stay with him because Sodom is a dangerous place [Genesis 19:1-3]. Later Lot hears a knock on his door so he goes outside and shuts the door behind him, all the men of Sodom are outside and they want to have some fun with the two guests inside [Genesis 19:4-5]. The crowd attacks Lot and they are motivated by their wicked lusts, so the Angels pulled him to safety and smote the crowd with blindness [Genesis 19:7-11]. The Angels tell Lot to get his family out of there because they are going to destroy this place [Genesis 19:12-13]. That morning the Angels led Lot, his wife and two daughters out of the city, telling them not to turn back or they will be consumed [Genesis 19:15-17]. “Then the Lord rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and fire from the Lord out of heaven” [KJV Genesis 19:24]; “Then Adonai caused sulfur and fire to rain down upon S’dom and ‘Amora from Adonai out of the sky” [CJB Genesis 19:24].

Brimstone refers to a very specific kind of Sulfur.

Location

These cities where found exactly where the scriptures indicate, along the western shore of the salt sea in the Dead Sea valley plain, forming the old eastern Canaanite border.

History

500 years after the event, Moses records the cities remain as salt, brimstone and ashes. In the first century of the common era Shimon Keefa (Simon Peter) spoke of the remains of the cities as if it where common knowledge among the Jews of his day. In the second century the historian Josephus spoke of the remains still standing in the Judean desert.

The Structures

People will try and dismiss the remains of these cities as natural geologic formations. Do natural geologic formations produce buildings with windows, buttresses, double walls, doorways, bricks, 90 degree angles? Or is this evidence these cities were made by man?

The Brimstone

The Brimstone here tested as 95.72% pure sulfur with trace metals ideal for producing extreme heat such as magnesium.

The Sulfur balls exclusively found at these sites are white and in a powder form. The sulfur found at these sites has been tested as low as 93% pure sulfur to as high as 98% pure sulfur with trace metals such as magnesium to produce astounding heat that can melt stainless steel. The Brimstone found is significantly different to sulfur found elsewhere, almost as if this brimstone was specifically designed. Sulfur from geothermal regions is yellow, in crystal form, and has a purity of about 40% sulfur.

Comparison of naturally occurring sulfur with Brimstone.

The gas emission from burning brimstone is so toxic that most of the inhabitants of Sodom and Gomorrah would have passed out long before they were consumed with fire. The fire cleansed the diseases caused by the cities rampant abominations, perhaps stopping potential epidemics.

Notice the flames color of burning brimstone.

Mass graves have been found near these cities suggesting there was once a thriving community.

Skeletons are now being excavated at Sodom. The bodies found appear to have had their legs blown off. The bodies appear to have been blown to the western side of the city by a blast of some sort.

Pottery has been discovered with evidence of exposure to heats comparable to a nuclear blast.

Here are some news paper articles concerning these discoveries.

…….

Even as Sodom and Gomorrah, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire [Jude 1:7].

Read KJV Romans chapter 1 if you think lesbians are exempt.

Marriage is between a man and a women, there is no such thing as same-sex marriage. God will not recognize these abominations as valid. People like to think they know better than God, they are mistaken. God made us, he makes the rules.

There is hope for homosexuals, pray for them, help them receive deliverance in Yeshua’s (Jesus) name, treat them with kindness and compassion; we have all fallen short of the glory of Messiah. We can all receive God’s forgiveness by asking in Yeshua’s name, and then we turn from our ways. Yeshua changes lives; he has helped millions of people with seemingly insurmountable problems. The penalty of sin is death. God loves us all and wishes that none of us will perish so he gave his son to die in our place. Yeshua then rose from the dead after 3 days and 3 nights in the grave. Through Yeshua you can have eternal life. Ask God to have your penalty paid for by Yeshua.
